At its annual meeting January 18–19, the ARRL Board of Directors
decided that the organization needs to “review, re-examine, and
reappraise ARRL’s regulatory and legislative policy with regard to
private land use restrictions.”

In order to effectively undertake such a review, the Board adopted a
resolution to withdraw its December 18
Petition for Rule Making
to the FCC, which sought to amend the Part 97 Amateur Service rules to
incorporate the provisions of the Amateur Radio Parity Act
(ARPA),
without prejudice to refiling. The resolution also is asking members of
Congress who had refiled legislation to enact the Amateur Radio Parity
Act (ARPA) to refrain from seeking to advance that legislation pending
further input from the ARRL.1
